Tends to lead people to think that would be the normal activity on a first date. I really ticks me off that the commercials, no less the regular shows have so much nudity, curse words, and rude behavior. I mean even the normal television times for children in the evening don't have shows that they can watch.


The people of this country need to start remembering the important values that need to be instilled in our youth and either turn off the tv or be an expert at reviewing the content of the cartoons and movies we let them watch.

Wow, so sorry for the rant, but this topic really gets my hackles up!

What is worse is the commercial that promotes adultery and infidelity.

I agree that commercials have sunk to a new low. There is a new Denny's ad with a man talking about the cost of pencils vs Dennys meals. That one is tastefully done. Any others????? Are there no creative admen out there? I hate the M & M commercials. Since when are M &M 's sexy?

I hate just about every commercial on. I usually hit the mute button. And why are they louder than the show you were watching?????

Drives me nuts.

But they don't always tell you what you should be taking it for. :lol: They sometimes just say "talk to your doctor to see if you should be taking ..." :roll:

That stupid girl looks like a Goth & in bad need of a dentist. I do like the heartburn one where the taco is slapping the guy in the face.

...Because "they" know we ignore commercials? Can't hear them from the kitchen while we are cleaning up the spilled PB and J sandwich the littlest ONE AND the puppy are both licking up from the kitchen floor?.... :XD: LOL
